Penang Global City Centre or PGCC, a RM25 billion worth of properties were planned over 15 years to redevelop the Penang Turf Club site in George Town.PGCC, envisioned to be one of the world’s first zero-carbon city, but one would doubt that?
PGCC will be designed by Asymptote Architecture in New York and Atelier Seraji in Paris.
The eco-city development is expected to include a 10.4ha public park, two five-star hotels, a performing arts centre, retail outlets, two iconic office towers, residential properties and a world-class convention centre.
Once the eco-city is completed, an estimated 20,000 people will be working there.
Would it materialise? Lets hope so for it will set yet another benchmark in Malaysia architecture.
